Mean Streets Lyrics by Mexvin

Fargone

2015

VERSE 1

I’m gonna tell you a snippet
About the past and about the people
About my steep fall, allowed myself to suck it all in
In my earliest days I realised I never felt that tall
I would usually just stall
Opportunities cos I didn’t believe in me
It would just creep on me
Mean streets would just tease me
There’s nothing to relieve me
Please do retrieve me
All I do is sigh, my head feels like it’s fried
It’s Friday again and once again it’s not my night

I keep on waiting for my prime, wasting my time with another sign
In the meantime I watch the others blossom
Drawn to my issues I keep my face solemn
But do believe me I still address them
From time to time
I just deviate again

Hook

They try to be the boss and
Try to pick up deposits
Kick to a pulp till they're nauseous 
Then hide and grow moustaches
They would just creep up on me
Those mean street's


VERSE 2

Taking the tube to London Bridge
So busy I can’t get out without lubricant
Like sardines squashed one after another into tins
Once I’m out I’m jubilant
Crowding, forcing and pushing ones limbs
Frowning, cursing, raging and drinking a glass of Pimms
Getting mature, thinking of who I can let back in
Can I endure?
Picking on things for the heck of it
Cos I know I’m never gonna admit, that I liked your tits
But you’re such a hypocrite, too late when I noticed it
Gonna conclude this day with another fit
Brimming over
Need to lift the lid


They’re frowned upon
When they run, they never pass the baton
When they get stunned just leave their partners behind and
Get cold-blooded cheated on then get withdrawn
Pasta without parmesan, no money, no life but got to push on
Tremors at night and still no dough what the fuck am I supposed to live on
Live off, live for, donate my liver
Tonight I’ll deliver
A ticking, tocking time bomb

Hook

They try to be the boss and
Try to pick up deposits
Kick to a pulp till they're nauseous 
Then hide and grow moustaches
They would just creep up on me
Those mean street's


Verse 3

Getting told all my life I’ll never make it big
What exactly is gonna prevent me from robbing an off licence with a McDonald’s wig
What are you stabbing me for? It’s only a twig
And again on the run, severely wounded, empty handed and no funds
And to boot I’ve got the shits
My body must think I’m dying
My buddies think I am lying
My mummy can’t see me crying
I’m deeply sorry for supplying

Hook

They try to be the boss and
Try to pick up deposits
Kick to a pulp till they're nauseous 
Then hide and grow moustaches
They would just creep up on me
Those mean street's
